I can't confirm this on my machine. From which currency are you trying to convert to and from?

[thom (tsk)]

from indian rupi to euro.
i cant get the calculator to work since then.
no entry in gconf-settings, any idea where gcalctool stores it's config ?

[thom (tsk)]

ah, wait
rm /home/thom/.cache/gcalctool/eurofxref-daily.xml
that did work.
Now I can't reproduce the error anymore...seems like it was more a glitch than a bug.
Mystery unsolved but case closed for now, i think.

thanks for your help :-)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit.
If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
